Neato! I enjoyed the close shave the cameraman got towards the end. I'm still more impressed with the San Diego 2012 misfire that launched three barges of fireworks all at once, five minutes before the show was supposed to being. Good times. Soiled pants.

The two guys who got my attention were the guy running away on fire and the guy with his giant steel balls watching the thing with fireworks hitting the ground next to him and HIM MOVING TO THAT SPOT AS THOUGH TO SAY "COME ON THEN, DO YOUR WORST!"

hdhale:BunkyBrewman: It is understood that £2,000 worth of fireworks were involved.

Given how notoriously cheap the Scots are, it's a really big deal.

Given that you obviously have never been to Edinburgh you don't know that huge fireworks displays are the norm - they're done for everything, from the start of the winter festival, Hogmanay, every night of the Tattoo, last night of the International Festival, and any high days and holidays in between. Just look at youtube for Edinburgh fireworks. The news story here is about a small bonfire in a small suburb, the sort of thing that's organised by a local youth group or church or whatever.
